According to Wikipedia, Samurai were the military nobility of pre-industrial Japan and Ninja were covert agents or mercenary in feudal Japan who specialized in unorthodox warfare.

Free or Freemuim because a few of the free games are such. I personally would rather pay outright for a game than to get nickled and dimed for items.

That’s my feeling about the first 2 games. In the past, the games from Glumobile that I’ve played, you must buy coins/credits/in app cash to continue. I rather pay a set price and know how much the game will cost me. Some games you can play for free, some games you can play a bit, then you must pay to continue, and not really know how much it will cost you to finish the game.

Something new to try.

Earn to die looks good. Hopefully my device supports it.

That Final Fantasy game looks amazing! Though I would love a Dragon Quest game for Android, but it seems like a Nintendo-only series lately…

Yes I’m very tempted to buy Chaos Rings II, but it’s $15. I guess that’s not too bad since I used to pay $50 for Square-Enix console games.

Bladslinger looks amazing. Even the youtube title screen looks like it’s coming at me.

Kyle Kulyk

I sure like the looks of that Vex Blocks game. This certainly isn’t a shameless plug. No sir. Play Vex Blocks!

Ooh Infinity Space looks interesting. Especially since I just got into Kerbal Space Program (PC) which I might add is a super awesome game if you are looking to build things that only occasionally explode killing all on board.
